Companies developing AI models argue that using copyrighted material is justified as AI learn similarly to humans, drawing inspiration from existing works. They claim that just as a songwriter's work is inspired by others' music, AI models can create original content from absorbed data. However, critics suggest that AI models work on a massive scale, warranting unique rules. The legal aspect revolves around the concept of fair use, allowing the use of copyrighted material under specific conditions governed by the law, although the complexity of these conditions remains a point of contention.
